From Request for Proposal thru Construction Complete and Final Payment Received. This complex process involved identifying and subcontracting trade-specific subcontractors in the top metropolitan areas.

The triage team identified and prioritized 24 Small NowSM action items and 7 Big NowSM project-size process improvements. They attacked the Small Now’sSM and worked most of them off within two months. They shifted and clarified job responsibilities to improve subcontractor bid quality.

What pleased the triage team most:

‘Showed differences’

‘Learning the process; seeing action’

‘Flowchart / Steps / Pain points of the process’

‘[Identifying] Pain Points’

‘Listing items for improvement’

‘Bringing issues to the table.’

‘Defining order to improve bottom line.’

Facilitators Remarks

The sponsor and host served their roles in the triage superbly. The triagers offered to work on their suggestions and the leadership backed them up. One team worked almost all of their Small Now action items off within a month or two. They have scheduled a refresh, having worked the original list.
